Exactly. A while back, I was considering jobs in both Colorado and the Bay Area. A $100K position in the Bay Area might only be worth half that in my home town of Fort Collins (and perhaps $70-80K in Denver). I wouldn't want to undersell myself by selecting $60K during the signup process if I thought that I could make more than that in the Bay Area. When I first checked out Pitchbox earlier this year[1], that uncertainty was enough for me to skip signing up entirely. bitsweet mentioned below[2] that my selection is used only as a filter and not shown to employers, but I think that could stand to be made more clear either during the signup process or somewhere on the landing page. EDIT for another slightly related point: I take it this is for US-based employers at the moment. Are there any plans to expand to other markets? Now that I'm moving to Berlin, I'd love to use something like Pitchbox in my job search (though incidentally, salaries are a completely different story over there).
